btw - does evolution further or support conservatism?

Out of sheer curiosity, what has evolution to do with this article? And why is evolution a matter of conservative/liberal politics? That's silly. I mean, it either occurred or it didn't. If it occurred does this forever render conservative beliefs invalid? That's nonsense.

It has as much to do with this thread as the morons that accused me of getting a thread yanked.

Or did you just conveniently miss that?

Good questions. At this time evolution would be of interest in predicting whether there might be earthlike planets in that solar system. Predicting anything beyond that now is pure speculation. Evolution itself as a tool of science or refutation of evolution is of interest to some people, but you would have to ask them why.
